this has always been one of my husband's fav songs but the one I had the privilege of listening to that made me start CRYING, is the Live BBC Maida Sessions, it's on SoundCloud I think
Here you go! Can't believe no one responded to your request until now...the lyrics in this version are remarkable. I left a penny at the Shrine this morning, saw the copper glowing as I spoke under my breath // All of the pennies in that silent totem were like drifting atoms of a wish that's long since left [?] // I will wonder what becomes of me What becomes of me... // Once each year I close my eyes and conjure up a life of wandering so far away from here // There has got to be a garden growing somewhere across the ocean where the air is blue and clear // I will wonder [/wander] all my days away, All my days away... // Sunlight over me, no matter what I do...
What a gem of a clip. Pure magic.
Incredible that he has two different versions lyrically and both are amazingly poetic. Genius.
I really like this version. I love to see the evolution of the music he makes.
this is the one! best "sunlight OVER ME NO MATTER WHAT I DO" ever. :)
this version is the best i'v seen of him reaching the high note perfectly. very beautiful stripped down.

Whoa different version! Love it!
i guess it says something when you listen to this song like 10 times in a row...
wonderful
This is breathtaking 👌
That voice. 😍😍😍
this finished product came out amazing.
@NTravitz Truly a blessing in a world full of cliche pop music. You are so right. Every lyric, melody, it's all so unique. So excellent.
Amazing song. The finished/ album version is a masterpiece, but the bones are in here.
His best performance. His best. Please share with me anything that comes close. Tender.
I really love the lyrics in this version. Sort of gives you a bit more insight on the song and what inspired it.
song is called "the shine/an argument"
Nice.
Does anyone have lyrics for this version?

I left a penny at the Shrine this morning,
saw the copper glowing as I spoke under my breath //
All of the pennies in that silent totem
were like drifting atoms of a wish that's long since left [?]
//
I will wonder what becomes of me
What becomes of me...
//
Once each year I close my eyes and
conjure up a life of wandering so far away from here //
There has got to be a garden growing
somewhere across the ocean where the air is blue and clear
//
I will wonder [/wander] all my days away,
All my days away...
//
Sunlight over me, no matter what I do...
@basketcase5295 you missed and "r" (shrine)
